Original answer

Here are several widely used alternatives to MDLive for online doctor visits, with a short summary of what each offers and notes about cost, coverage, or specialties so you can compare quickly.

  1. Teladoc

    • What: Large, full‑service telehealth provider — urgent care, primary care, dermatology, mental health, chronic-condition management.
    • Notes: Widely available through insurers and employers; pricing and coverage depend on your plan. (Teladoc has had business changes in recent years; check current details before signing up.) (apnews.com)
  2. Amwell

    • What: Video visits for urgent care, primary care, therapy and psychiatry, nutrition and specialty services.
    • Cost/coverage: Many insurance plans cover Amwell; self‑pay urgent visits often run in the range of ~$59–$79 but vary by service and insurer. (telehealth.com)
  3. Doctor on Demand (Included Health / Doctor on Demand)

    • What: Video visits for urgent care, primary care and mental health (therapy/psychiatry). Highly rated in consumer reviews.
    • Cost: Typical self‑pay urgent visit prices have been reported around ~$75 for short visits; therapy and psychiatry cost more. (healthline.com)
  4. PlushCare

    • What: Primary care, urgent care, and mental health via telemedicine; offers membership plans that include discounted visit pricing and ongoing care.
    • Cost: Membership model (example: membership around $19.99/month; visits with insurance often similar to in‑person copays; self‑pay visits quoted on site). (PlushCare.com)
  5. GoodRx Care

    • What: Low‑cost online visits (text/phone/video) focused on common conditions, sexual health, skin conditions, and prescriptions; integrated with GoodRx pricing for meds.
    • Cost: Starts low for members (e.g., $19 with GoodRx Gold in some offerings); nonmember prices higher. Note: GoodRx has had privacy/regulatory attention in the past — worth reviewing their policies. (goodrx.com)
  6. 98point6

    • What: Text‑first and video virtual primary/urgent care platform (asynchronous + real‑time options); used both direct to consumers and as a white‑label solution for employers/health systems.
    • Notes: Focus on convenience and AI‑assisted intake; offerings and access models may differ by employer or plan. (98point6.com)
  7. LiveHealth Online

    • What: Telehealth platform often offered through health plans (covers urgent care, therapy, psychiatry, lactation consultants, dietitians).
    • Cost/coverage: Many visits covered or cost similar to in‑person depending on insurance; pricing varies by service. (healthline.com)
  8. MeMD

    • What: Urgent care and behavioral health via telemedicine (phone/video).
    • Cost: Historically positioned as a lower‑cost urgent care alternative (prices vary). (versusreviews.com)
  9. Lemonaid Health / Nurx / Ro (specialty-focused direct‑to‑consumer)

    • What: These services focus on specific areas—Lemonaid (common meds and some primary care), Nurx (birth control, PrEP, STIs), Ro (men’s/women’s health, sexual health, some primary care and chronic care). Good for prescription and condition-specific care.
    • Notes: Price and availability vary by state and service; some restrict controlled substances. (Search each service for your state availability.)
  10. Zocdoc Telehealth and Local Health System Telemedicine

  • What: Zocdoc lists telehealth appointments with local physicians (useful to find a tele‑primary care or specialist who offers video visits). Also check your local health system or insurer’s telemedicine portal — often the easiest route for continuity of care and insurance coverage.

Quick tips for choosing:

  • Insurance: See which platforms your insurance or employer covers — that often gives the best cost. (patients.Amwell.com)
  • Service type: Pick a general telehealth (urgent/primary) vs. specialty (mental health, sexual health, dermatology) depending on need.
  • Pricing model: Compare per‑visit price, membership/subscription, and whether the platform accepts insurance. (PlushCare.com)
  • Prescriptions & controlled substances: Many platforms will prescribe common meds but restrict controlled substances and complex conditions — check policies before booking.
  • Privacy: Review privacy policies (some telehealth vendors have faced data‑sharing scrutiny). (apnews.com)

If you want, I can:

  • Compare 2–3 of these services side‑by‑side for cost, specialties, app availability and insurance acceptance based on your state and insurance; or
  • Give direct links and signup tips for any one service above.
